Has anyone been able to use the "browse devise" bluetooth feature in MAC OS X with the pearl 8100?

i keep getting a message saying "services not available".

thanks

Which OSX are you using buddy?
If i try to send a file to my BB over bluetooth i always get 'device does not have the necessary features'

the most current version...not sure but 10.4....something but it's Leapord. I have no problem bluetoothing files but i would like to browse the device instead of using that usb cable.

Ah i get what you mean now
Ive just tried with my 8310 Curve and i still get the message 'device does not have the necessary features'
Do you get the same message?

yeah....oh well...i'll try again. i did notice that i didn't have my phone set up as "discoverable". Maybe this could be it...i'll try it and repost.

Has it worked buddy?
Sorry replies have been a bit slow, i'm trying to juggle this with a few video projects and college work =S

You cant browse them from Mac OS X.
Your only option is to send your pictures/ringtones/etc to and from the BB over Bluetooth.
